In the gripping new novel from the Queen of Suspense, a young woman is haunted by two murders that are closely linked - despite the one hundred and ten years that separate them. Following the acrimonious breakup of her marriage and the searing experience of being pursued by an obsessed stalker, criminal defense attorney Emily Graham accepts an offer to leave Albany and work in a major law firm in Manhattan. Feeling a need for roots, she buys her ancestral home, a restored Victorian house in the historic New Jersey seaside resort town of Spring Lake. Her family had sold the house in 1892, after one of Emily's forebears, Madeline Shapley, then still a young girl, disappeared. Now, more than a century later, as the house is being renovated and the backyard excavated for a pool, the skeleton of a young woman is found. She is identified as Martha Lawrence, who had disappeared from Spring Lake over four years ago.
"On The Street Where You Live is taking a deserved Ms. Clark back to the New York Times Bestseller List" Harriet Klausner, www.im-ur.com " This is a plot-driven novel, with Clark's story mechanics at their peak of complexity..." Publishers Weekly "A compelling, fast read" Pat Kersten, www.theromancereadersconnection.com "Don't expect anything less than a cast of striking, if paranoid players tracking down and being tracked down by a ruthless killer - as well as a snappy, surprise double-edged ending that closes the book with a mystical flourish. Mary Higgins-Clark is obviously here to stay; this is one writer whose name carries an elaborate reputation for producing taut, suspenseful entertainment..." The Daily News, Massachusetts "All of the elements of a Clark nail-biter are here, with a fast-moving plot and neat conclusion." Richmond Times "Clark outdoes herself" Tampa Tribune
